Flying through the map

There's one thing on my mind from quite some time. I often see people rocket jumping through the map, going around in seconds, never hitting a wall or a corner. It feels they are following a path on auto, if you know what i mean.
I try really hard to calculate where my next rocket should go so I can continue going forward with high speed (tunnels, doors etc.) but somehow I always hit a corner or something and bam, stop.
Do you have any tips how I can improve that? Any videos with voiceover? Anything to read? Anything that will help me improve moving through the map, full speed rocket jumping?

Do you practice in PQL or VQL? You linked a PQL vid, in which it's infinitely easier to avoid hitting corners and walls, and frankly, half of what you see in the vid isn't possible on vanilla settings. So a good start is to figure out what exactly you're trying to achieve and whether it's actually doable ;o
